Are hybrids eligible for Government grants?

What are the best small hybrids? Are hybrids subject to Government grants?

Answered by Andrew Brady
The Toyota Yaris Hybrid and Honda Jazz Hybrid are two very good small hybrids. Only cars with a list price of less than £50,000 with CO2 emissions of less than 50g/km and capable of travelling at least 70 miles without any emissions qualify for the Government's plug-in grant. That means, in reality, only pure electric vehicles.

Looks great on the outside and isn't too shabby on the inside either. Hybrid engine is cheap to run and relaxing. Autonomous aids make long drives painless.
Very practical. Safe. Cheap to run. More desirable than ever before.
